Welcome to Lipstick Lattes, a lifestyle and fashion blog documenting my journey through this beautiful place called life! Here I will share my personal and professional experiences, and the world through my eyes.

Bridges... are built in order to create a path over an obstacle. They connect us and enable us to discover new grounds. Think about about the bridges in our lives... What obstacles were you able to overcome? Did you create the bridge or was it built for you? What was on the other side?

Life has no handbook, we are faced with different trials and tribulations daily. Sometimes in order to move forward, we must bridge the gap between what we have and what we want out of life. Whether that bridge is self made or man made, we must make the decision to cross it. I've had many bridges to cross and create myself. Moving to New York was definitely crossing a bridge, as well as moving back to Pittsburgh. I am now at the point where I have to create a new bridge in order to get to my next stage in life. I don't know what will be on the other side, but what I do know is that as long as I have a solid foundation my bridge will be sturdy and will lead me along my path to success.

Think about how bridges are built. I encourage you to examine the bridges in your life. Whether it be a relationship, a goal, or even something you've always wanted to do. What do you want to achieve? What will you do in order to bridge the gap?
